Mary Bell: The 11-Year-Old Killer of Martin Brown and Brian Howe | Ep. 273

In the summer of 1968, two little boys died within weeks of each other in the Scotswood area of Newcastle upon Tyne. Four-year-old Martin Brown was found dead inside a derelict house, while three-year-old Brian Howe disappeared from the streets where he lived before his body was discovered on a patch of wasteland known locally as the "Tin Lizzie". At first, the two deaths appeared to be separate tragedies, but as detectives began digging into Brian's murder, they uncovered a series of disturbing clues that would force them to look back at Martin's unexplained death. The investigation quickly became one of the most extraordinary murder inquiries in British criminal history. Police questioned more than a thousand local children, strange handwritten messages appeared to reveal knowledge of Martin's death, and detectives found themselves trying to work out whether the person responsible for Brian's murder could actually be another child. At the centre of the investigation were two young girls, Mary Bell and Norma Bell, whose friendship and behaviour had already attracted attention in the neighbourhood. As the evidence mounted, detectives were faced with a question that seemed almost impossible to answer. Could an eleven-year-old girl really be responsible for the deaths of two much younger children? In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, I examine the deaths of Martin Brown and Brian Howe, the investigation that unfolded across Scotswood in 1968, and the extraordinary evidence that eventually brought two children before the courts. We look at Mary Bell's troubled childhood, her friendship with Norma, the disturbing events that preceded the murders, the clues that turned police suspicion towards the girls, and the trial that captivated Britain. It's a deeply unsettling story about childhood, violence, abuse and the difficult question of whether someone so young can truly understand the consequences of their actions.

I Wish I Had Stayed In Bed |The Hungerford Tragedy : Episode 340

Minutes before taking his own life, Michael Ryan looked back on the devastation he had caused in Hungerford. He had killed 16 people and injured 15 others. Then he told the police negotiator: “I wish I had stayed in bed.” In this episode, I look back at what happened that day, the people whose lives were changed forever, and the events that unfolded as a quiet town found itself at the centre of a tragedy that shocked the country. I also look at some of the lesser-known details of the case and the questions that remained long after the shooting had ended.

The Llandrindod Wells Murders of Fiona Ovis and William Crompton | Ep. 272

In the early hours of May 2, 1996, police were called to a bungalow in Llandrindod Wells, Mid Wales, where they discovered the bodies of 28-year-old Fiona Ovis and 18-year-old William Crompton. Both had been brutally stabbed in what detectives described as a frenzied knife attack, leaving behind a shocking crime scene that would quickly become the focus of a murder investigation. As detectives began piecing together the events of that night, their attention turned to Fiona's complicated personal life and a relationship that appeared to have ended just days before the killings. Within hours, a 26-year-old man had been arrested, but as investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a disturbing story involving jealousy, obsession, mental health and a relationship that had ended in heartbreak. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the murders of Fiona Ovis and William Crompton, the investigation into the Llandrindod Wells double murder, and the case against Andrew Cole. We explore Fiona and William's lives, their relationship, the events leading up to the murders, Cole's arrest and first trial, the controversial retrial that followed, and the psychiatric evidence that played a crucial role in the case. We also look at Cole's eventual release from prison and the events that followed, while remembering Fiona and William and the devastating impact their murders had on the people who knew and loved them.

Revisited - A Pact With The Devil

Note: This epiosde was originally released in August 2023. Detectives believed they had identified the murderer, and when they entered the bedroom of 18-year-old Danyal Hussein in south-east London, they found something extraordinary. Among his belongings was a handwritten note, signed in his own blood, which described a pact he claimed to have made with a demon called Lucifuge Rofocale. According to the beliefs surrounding black magic, Lucifuge Rofocale was said to be in charge of the government and treasury of Hell, acting on the orders of Lucifer. The pact Hussein had written described a chilling bargain: he would murder six women every six months in return for financial rewards, including the promise of winning the lottery. What detectives had discovered would give them a disturbing insight into the thinking of the teenager they believed was responsible for two brutal murders.

A 38-Year Miscarriage of Justice: The Murder of Diane Sindall | Ep. 271

On the night of August 1, 1986, 21-year-old Diane Sindall was making her way home across Birkenhead after finishing a shift at the Wellington Hotel. When her van ran out of petrol, Diane continued on foot along Borough Road. She was seen walking with a man shortly before she disappeared, and within hours, her body was discovered nearby. What followed was one of the most horrific murder investigations in Merseyside's history. Diane's murder triggered a huge police investigation and a desperate search for the man responsible. But as detectives worked to identify their suspect, the investigation took a devastating turn. Peter Sullivan, a vulnerable 29-year-old local man, was arrested and eventually convicted of Diane's murder. He would spend 38 years in prison maintaining his innocence, while the forensic evidence that could potentially identify the real killer remained beyond the capabilities of the technology available at the time. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, I examine the murder of Diane Sindall, the investigation that followed, the conviction of Peter Sullivan and the extraordinary miscarriage of justice that robbed an innocent man of almost four decades of his life. We explore Diane's final movements, the hunt for her killer, the controversial police interrogation and evidence used against Sullivan, and the forensic breakthrough that finally changed everything. Above all, we remember Diane, a 21-year-old woman with a wedding to plan and dreams of opening her own florist shop, while examining the question that has haunted Merseyside for almost 40 years. Who really killed Diane Sindall? If you know something that could lead to the arrest of Diane’s killer, please contact Merseyside Police by calling 101, or pass information on anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
